Poker After Dark is a popular poker series that features six professional poker players competing against each other in a high-stakes game of No Limit Texas Hold'em. The players are seated around a table in a luxurious poker room, complete with plush chairs and a massive stack of chips.

In season 4 episode 1, titled Cash Game #1 - Night 1 of 5, viewers are introduced to the six poker pros competing in the game. They include Phil Hellmuth, known as the "Poker Brat" for his temperamental behavior at the table, David Williams, an accomplished player with over $8 million in winnings, Jennifer Harman, an established poker pro and two-time winnner of World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets, Chris Ferguson, a five-time WSOP bracelet winner known for his distinctive cowboy hat, Eric Baldwin, a rising star in the poker world with over $6 million in career earnings, and Mike Matusow, a well-known player with over $9 million in winnings.

The players buy in for $100,000 each, and the action begins with some cautious play as the players try to get a feel for each other's strategies. But things quickly heat up as players start making sizable bets and aggressive plays. Hellmuth, in particular, is known for his bluffs and is frequently putting his opponents to the test with large bets.

Harman, on the other hand, is more of a steady player, preferring to play tight and calculated moves. Williams also plays with a measured approach, using his experience to make the most of his hands. Ferguson takes a more unorthodox approach, often making surprising plays that catch his opponents off guard.

As the night progresses, the players start to get a feel for each other's styles, and the competition grows more intense. There are several big hands played, with players risking tens of thousands of dollars on each one. But despite the high stakes, the players maintain a cordial and respectful atmosphere, congratulating each other on good plays and sharing laughs and jokes throughout the game.

The episode ends with the players finishing up for the night, with some players ahead in chips and others trailing behind. But with four more nights of play to go, anything can happen, and viewers are left excited to see what will unfold in the coming episodes.

Overall, Cash Game #1 - Night 1 of 5 is a thrilling episode of Poker After Dark, filled with high-stakes action, strategic play, and exciting personalities. Fans of the show and of poker in general will enjoy watching these top-level pros battle it out for top honors.
